pass freely up through the barrel. A
lutte of clay is used to close the Joint
between the lower end of the barrel
and the eam-box, as we'll as the cover
of the barrel. Instead of worm,"
tin pipe immersed in a trough of
cold water is used and a steam con-
nection with the barrel is generally
made by an elbow branch of wood,
bored out with an auger. The sassa-
fras tree (Sassafras 06ftinale) grows
abundantly in this section, especially
on WORKOUT lands, where it is usually
found in dense thickets of small
shrubs. The root is dug and washed
quite free of dirt, and, after being
chopped short and bruised with a
Ratchet, is ready for the STILL" This
work is done by boys employed by
the manufacturer, who pays a stated
price per hundred pounds for the root
ready for use.
The same outfit is used in the pro-
'duction of the oil of pennyroyal He

"THE DEAD THEY ARE WITH
US STILL"
by JUSTIN MCCARTHY.

/ cannot touch lis cheek,
Nor ruf1ie with loving breath his haIf;
/ look int his eyes, and hear him speak
lie never knows that l am there
oh, if my darling one could only know
That day and night, through all his
weary life,
/ whom he loved in years of long ago,
Am with him still-his wife
/ watch him at his task,
When the broad Sunbeams first light up
his room:
! watch him till the evening lays her mask
Upon the face of Day; and liz the gloom
lie lays his pencil down and silent sits,
And leans his chin upon his hand and
signs;
How we'll know what memory round him
read it IN his eyes.
And when his pencils skill
Has sometimes wrought touch OF happy
art.
/ see his face with sudden gladncss fill;
see him turn with eager lips apart,
TO bid me come and welcome his success;
And then he drOOpS, and throws his brush
aside;
Oh. if my darling then could only guess
That she is near who died
Sometimes fancy, too,
That he does dimly know it~that he feels
Some influence O1 love pass lnlllllhS thlo
Deaths prison bars, the spirits bonds and
seals;
Some dear companiOnship around him still;
SOME whispered blessing, family breath
ed careSS,
The presence Of love no death can kill
Frightening his loneliness.
All, but it cannot be
The dead are with the living-I am here;
But lie, my living love, he cannot see
His dead wife, though she cling to him
so near.

hear him breathe my name in waiting
tone
He calls me, calls his wife, l cannot
speak
He thinks he is alone.
To see him, still be near him, feel his
breath
Fan my sad cheek, and yet am not free
To bid him feel, by any fainteSt touch,
That she who never left his side i'll life
She who so loved him, whom he loved sc
much
Is with him Still-his wife.

MAKING SASSAFRAS OIL.
An Industry that Might be turned to
Profitable Account in this Section.

The following article, by Mr.. Thos.
c. Harris, Of Raleigh, is taken from
the Popular Science Ne7os. We pub
fish it as a matter of interest to our
readers, many of whom in some local
tiles the GOLD LEAF doubts not could
turn the industry under consideration
to profitable account:
In some of the interior counties of
North Carolina may be seen, in oper-
alton, many primitive establishments
for the manufacture of the oil of sassa-
fras and oil of pennyroyal. The APP
paratus used in this work is SO exceed
ingly rude and primitive as to appear
ridiculous to most observers; but the
product is of good quality, and con-
stitutes profitable industry.
